Memories of 2008 came back this morning when I got to the yard and poor Jet was lying down and wouldn't get up. Called vet - gave him a sedative and flushed out to try and get the impaction to shift - they are coming back this afternoon to repeat. Years ago when I first had him, he got a sand impaction and it resulted in surgery. Just going back up to check on him again now but I am worrying as he is 19 now. I noticed he had been pooing a bit less esp when I went to poo pick yesterday but he had been eating OK. Ever since the colic all those years ago I have been ultra paranoid about his routine & feeding so can't believe he has colic again :(

It’s like deja vu. I left him balling my eyes out. Have to make a decision if no change, surgery or not, high risk as caecal colic. He is 19 but was in regular work. Popped round the xc course a few weeks ago and a good gallop yesterday ?
